The current data logging patches are at:

ftp.suse.com/pub/people/mason/patches/data-logging

They are against 2.4.19-pre7, and contain versions of the major (stable)
speedups.  The patch is pretty big, so I'm not likely to merge with the
namesys pending directories.  The namesys guys add things frequently,
and I think it would get confusing for people trying to figure out which
patches to apply.

The data logging stuff is beta code, if you have a good test bed where
it's ok if things go wrong I can make you a special patch with the
pending stuff merged.
